Tranny & Gear & Coolant change, (Dealership)

My car has 36k baught it 6 months ago with 28 they tell me most of the 30k service was done before it was sold only things undone were tranny/gear fluid swap and a radiator drain and replace, they stated flush only done at 100k if not serviced properly... Here's where my red flags go off, there are 2 Mitsubishi dealers here in phx, Mark Mitsubishi Scottsdale and Phoenix, Phoenix quoted me 170 for the transmission fluid change, Scottsdale quoted me 70$, so obviously I told Scottsdale the bull**** I got fed at Phoenix, they are both owned by the same owner. He said he'd do the gear fluid/tranny fluid for 70 and then asked if I wanted to do the radiator drain and replace for another 70 so I had completed all required maintenance... Am I being taken for a ride? I don't mind doing routine maintenance, I baby my cars and love them.. Are the new prices I got right? Do I need both of these things done at 36k, after only having the car since September. Help need real advice. Total cost on Monday will be 140.

That's not a bad deal. If your time is money. Do you have a CVT or manual? If you have a cvt that is a smoking deal. I did my manual trans fluid twice now and changed the coolant. The oil and coolant cost me $65 and took me close to two hours, dicking around a bit.
